Also the video discusses why people get sleepy during simran.

werent u going to delete ure account. I guess this means u decided to keep sikhi? I am grateful if so!

In gurbani it says we should sing "gun" or virtues of Vaheguru. How does Gurbani mean for us to do that. I mean it is not 100% clear to me as to how to do it. Is it in kirtan roop, in mool mantar, or Gurbani itself, because Gurbani is all virtues. Or , does mean focusing on virtues and qualities of God during simran. For example, if I do waheguru jap, then in I mind i think of all qualities and virtues of Vaheguru and feel it in heart and it makes this wonderful feeling but it is not exactly singing "gun" of waheguru. I am sorry if I might have confused.

Thing is I do not really do eyes close simran, like mool mantar jaap or gurmantar since I usually always fall asleep, especially during amritvela. Instead I just do sehaj path for as much time as I can before goiing to school.

i am amritdhari and keep amritevla with kirpa

Whats a serious answer?

http://gursikhijivan.blogspot.ca/2011/04/q-with-sant-darshan-singh-dhakki.html P.S I should be studying for exam tomorrow but I am doing stuff like this. P.S a beanti- can sangat do ardas for me to do good on exams coming this week.

I was really curious how to do it. I want to do it to travel to darbar sahib and matha tek if that's possible? How if it is possible does one do it? I really don't know too much about it, sorry.

yeah, I didn't mean to make it to sound defensive sorry

What makes them khalsatanis? Honestly if someone follows guru sahibs path they are branded as terrorists, khalistanis, separtists, extremist, and almost anything else with an -ist ending.

thats what makes sikhi so unique. There is nothing like it in the world. 1. All other religions like Christainity and Islam say if u dont follow their religion u go to hell. Sikhi says, if you don't do naam jap and good actions and waste time doing paps, you will go to hell and be reborn through 8.4 lakh joons 2. Sikhi accepts that people from other religions can meet God through naam. 3. In Sri Guru Granth Sahib, there is place for all religoins, budhism, Islam, Hindus because of bhagat bani. No other scripture from any religion is like that 4. Guru sahib actually wrote gurbani themselves. Bible was wrote 200 years after Jesus, and I think it was similar for Quaran. 5. Quaran and Bible have different versions and can change so much and have changed so much over time. Gurbani is perfect at all times, no need for changes. 6. Islam and christainity promise heaven and freedom hell for believers, Sikhi says there is sachkhand (completely different from heaven) for gursikhs. 7. Guru sahib gave sikhs everything. We have our own Kirtan which is unique ( no dharam has their scriptures written in raags), we have gatka, and our own identity, our own everything because of Guru Sahib 8. NO other religion really has langar except for sikhi 9. Women have most equality and respect in sikhi, even within gurbani 10. Everyone is born sikh, with scissors you can trim hair and become part of other religions, without scissors, everyone would be sikh (Qoute from Sant Jarnail Singh Ji) 11. No religions has as many shaheedis as brutal as in Sikhi. 12. Nothing can compare to Darbar Sahib. 13. No other religions really has miri or piri concept 14. We have our own 5 takhts for political power 15. Shashtars in Sikh 16. There is nothing like Amrit in other religions. Christians may have baptism, but they can do it over and over again. Amrit is one time thing. 17. No one can equal guru sahib and their sacrifices, i.e Abraham who started the line for Islam, Jews, Christains, did not kill his son when god asked him to sacrifice him in God's name. Then in sikhi we have Guru Gobind Singh ji maharaj who watched all sons give shaheedi and give jakaras at same time. 18. Guru Gobind Singh ji maharaj made us a part of themselves by giving us amrit, and giving us sikhi saroop to have with beards, dastars, rehat etc. 19. SO MUCH MORE I DONT HAVE TIME TO TELL ABOUT

i agree. Try to find the intentions of your friend. Maybe he's curious, I have doubts however.

Sant baba thakur singh ji khalsa was 15th head of Damdami Taksal. There is a lot to read about them on google. They are one of the real sants in sikhi.

i tried doing japji sahib fast for sometime. It was amazing. i also tried slow. When I say slow I mean like 1 japji sahib path in 1 and half or 2 hours. Both is its own experience. I recommend you try slow if you have not tried fast already.

worst part is that these people wear bana and gol dastars. May maharjaj help them

talk about the 4 jugs, satjug to kaljug. People remembered vaheguru in satjug, they do not in kaljug. They forgot God, because God made them do so, but he is still inside of them. That is why we do simran, to find and merge with God within ourselves. We are not really seperated from Vaheguru in the first place, we are just overtaken by Maya and completely forget about Vaheguru, because of Vaheguru's will. We do bhagti to find Vaheguru is dissolved in everything completely and all darkness goes away. Once we forgot Vaheguru, we thought that we ourselves our individiuals, and that individualism has all ego and rooted to all problems leading to today. Just read more gurbani dude. We could talk about this for so much time. I just wanted to give a really short answer.

Also does the number really count. I mean lots of bhagti must have been done but is the number really just like an estimation. Like for mool mantar or japji sahib path. Is it kind of like if you do japji sahib path all day for 5 years you reach a certain number^

It sounds to me like you searched the internet for all of this information. I did too and am familiar to all of it except the part of the shaheed singh and bhai rama singh ji. In regards to sant baba thakur singh ji's bachans- We can never understand ourselves the full bachan of a brahmgyani. Our interpration does not matter, because we will never understand fully their bachan. Guru sahib knows how it will play out. We just need to keep patience and make sure we remain as Khalsa. Also who knows how many government agencies are keeping their eyes on posts like these with regards to raj. It is best to have these conversations with other proper gursikhs, in private and in person, not on public sites like these. In regards to shaheedi sarovar Sant Gurbachan Singh ji, said that the singhs in the shaheed sarvor said to them that when an amritdhair singh keeps rehit, does nitnem without fail and is tyar bar tyar, panj pyare comes and takes them away, then Akal Purakh asks them if they want to do more seva or simran, if they say yes then they go to the shaheed sarvor, if no then they go to sachkhand, Sant Hari Singh said that the singhs in the shaheed sarvor said that they will not take birth again, they said that the same way in which you came in, that is the way in which we will come out and get khalsa raj, we are preparing, we are just waiting for the command of Guru Gobind Singh ji and as soon as he says yes, we will beat the nagara when we are coming out and will fight for khalsa raj, the sant also said something from raj nama or karni nama, (i dont remember what line he said but from what i know, he said something about punjab), he also said that when this happens, it will basically be impossible not to find a singh (is what I mean khalsa, and not your cheapstake fake "singhs") anywhere This is a lie. Shaheedi sarovar was a lie made up by other people who used sant baba gurbachan singh ji khalsa's name to sell it as a true sakhi to the sangat,. It is important to know for anyone else who reads it.The whole sakhi from whichever website is wrong. It is made up. There is no evidence at all of this sakhi. Ask any taksali singh, especially those who have sangat of sant baba gurbachan singh ji khalsa. I thought it was true the first time I read it, but luckily an actual sant cleared this sakhi with me. Just trust me when I say it is made up.

i made a post about how to deal with individual in discussion section. As for kids, their must be something wrong with the sangat they keep. Facebook and media are tools. U need to control mind. Their sangat is probably at school not the best. You could also get a filter on your internet to filter adult content out. Thats not good sangat if they talk openly like it is a joke. Take them to gurduwara make them do sewa and lots of bani. NO EASY WAY AROUND. It is a really hard thing to overcome. With kirpa 5 vikars can be destroyed. Short answer, sorry, If u need more details lemme know

I wish i found this earlier. It would have been helpful a long time ago. For people who have problems with kaam sant ji explains what we lack. We need to recognize god is watching us every second. The next time you find yourself overwhelmed by lust and are about to lose control, try to apply this scenario. So the procedure 1. Pick a sant mahapurkh (a real sant) that you respect a lot (for me i am going to use sant jarnail singh ji khalsa) 2.When you find yourself overwelmed about to lose control and act in lust, imagine that sant/ mahaprurkh standing behind you watching you. 3. Ask yourself if you would be comfortable performing this action in front sant ji if you were to meet them right now. 4. Imagine what they would say or do if they discovered what you were doing. That should help control your mind hopefully. You really want to convince yourself that god is always watching your actions as they are. Then eventually you gain more control over your mind because you begin developing fear of god and control your actions better. In sukhmani sahib - ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਪੇਖਹੁ ਨੇਰਾ ॥ Behold God near at hand, twenty-four hours a day ਮਿਟੈ ਅਗਿਆਨੁ ਬਿਨਸੈ ਅੰਧੇਰਾ ॥ Ignorance shall depart, and darkness shall be dispelled. The rest is in doing more naam/ gurbani/ sewa. Also, abandon "bad" sangat. Sangat is a big factor, especially since youth spend so much time at school with other kids. You could have the potential to be a great gursikh, but could have been ruined because of the sangat you kept. You should be able to tell the difference "good" and "bad". If it is a school enviroment, it may be hard to find good sangat, and you may have to isolate yourself because everyone around is bad sangat. In that case contact "good" sikhs and keep their sangat as much as you can afterschool, and keeping do simran/path at school quietly, while ignoring 'bad' sangat. You could probably find good sangat at your local gurduwara. This may help you feel less isolated. Meat, alcohol, tobacco increase the strength of 5 vikaars. Avoid them! Taking amrit will help in my opinion, but keep rehat and have faith and do ardas. Also I found this video

for jaap sahib try to listen to an audio version. As time passes you will eventually have it kanth (memorized) and speed will be natural but time should not be an issue. Just enjoy every moment when doing bani. Keep good sangat as well of proper sikhs

These are hard questions that I thought about before and even after taking amrit and still have no certain answers but here I found some old videos that I hope help and the video with sant baba gurbachan singh ji's anmol bachan's has more details but i recommend watching the whole video. You have to listen carefully it is a little hard to hear I think this would be most helpful for your questions

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-12-18/scourge-family-violence-in-hindu-and-sikh-communities/9257724 I cant believe this garbage. This is exactly why we need to stop intermarriages. They are not allowed in sikhi, and i hate how people are spoiing the sikhi name. Some passages from the whole Hinduism and Sikhism are much more individualistic and less formal religions than Christianity, Islam or Judaism, with less reliance on the words of scriptures or priests, so perpetrators from these communities are not inclined to justify their violence using texts, as they do in other religions, local anti-violence advocates say. Advocates sounding the alarm over the level of abuse of Hindu and Sikh women say that in many communities, all-male clergy fear they will offend men, which makes them reticent about confronting a culture of "male entitlement" and holding perpetrators of family violence to account. While Sikhism and Hinduism are distinct religions, there is intermingling among members of these faith communities which both originated in the Indian sub-continent and share historical practices affecting women's roles and status in society, including dowry-giving. The entire article is really about how hindu religion supports dowry and how it is abused and etc... but the main problem is sikhi is dragged into the middle with no evidence. Just false claims. It just says how Hindu scriptures say it's ok to abuse women, but then they sikhi is similar with no evidence.

go with her to panj pyara singh. They are guru sahib's roop as well. They will know your situation and how to handle it.

leave this person behind. Take a hukamnama at a local gurduwara as soon as possible (Guru Maharaj knows best). When we take amrit we are dead to the world. Keep rehat. Get into contact with good sangat at local gurduwara. If he still bothers you or pphysically abuses then you need to learn how to stand for yourself. That is why it is so important to become shashterdhari or learn how to defend yourself, so you can stand for yourself and those who cannot stand for themselves. Doesn't this person have parents you can contact. If they were aware of what was happening, that might stop that trouble.
